[PATCH] Align init_array section to 4K

[Jan Kiszka]

From: Jan Kiszka <jan.k...@siemens.com>

Signing tools, e.g. sbsigntool, stumble over the unalign init_array
section. According to [1], 4K was the default section alignment of
Visual Studio, and that made this the de-facto standard. Also gnuefi
aligns its sections this way.

As we do not want to fork our own linker script, use the assembly
fragment that places init_array_start at the beginning of that section
and align there.
